Your Catfish Friend
If I were to live my life
in catfish forms
in scaffolds of skin and whiskers
at the bottom of a pond
and you were to come by
one evening
when the moon was shining
down into my dark home
and stand there at the edge
of my affection
and think, "It's beautiful
here by this pond. I wish
somebody loved me,"
I'd love you and be your catfish
friend and drive such lonely

A Drinking Song
“Wine comes in at the mouth And love comes in at the eye; That’s all we shall know for truth Before we grow old and die. I lift the glass to my mouth, I look at you, and I sigh.” -W. B. Yeats
I picked up a book of his poetry at Barnes&Noble today, and I read a few poems. Just as I was about to put it back on the shelf, I flipped around for one more and found this.

It's a very strange thing...
when you try your best to be a good friend, only to realize you were trying too hard, and you were simply making things awkward. So you go from feeling like you’re doing the right thing, to feeling like shit because you almost fucked it all up.
Being human is so complicated.

It’s that YOU are the only one who makes me feel like I’m worth it.

What...
am I even doing anymore?
I cannot live a simple life. I cannot live a life that has no greater meaning or purpose. I cannot live a life that is the equivalent of 2+2=4. Everybody knows it, we’ve all see in a trillion times, so basic it is.
Let me be a quadratic equation. Let me be a derivative. Complex, requiring thought.

Tornado
Love is a tornado. Sometimes you see it coming, sometimes you don’t. Horrifyingly beautiful and sweeping through your life, it fascinates you. Sometimes you chase it. Let it pull you in with every wicked spin. Bask in the glorious power of something so much greater than you could ever be. And sometimes, when it sweeps through your life, it takes everything you have and leaves you standing,...

Oh, How I Love...
-Your laugh, every beat so full of heart.
-Your hair, a waterfall of silk.
-Your smile, infectious and brilliant.
-Your cheeks, full of joy, always ready for fun.
-Your crooked smile, the one you can’t manage when I’m watching.
-Your ears, delicate, the perfect set for you.
-Your brain, sitting sweet between those two ears.
-Your tongue, quick and witty.
-Your...
